Most-quoted passages

The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “(1) To insure the public safety through: (A) The deterrent influence of the penalties provided: (B) The rehabilitation of those convicted, and; (C) Punishment as may be necessary to prevent likely reoccurrence of criminal behavior. (2) To give fair warning of what is prohibited and of the consequences of violation. (3) To prescribe penalties that are proportionate to the seriousness of the offense and that permits recognition of differences in rehabilitation possibilities among individual offenders.”
